Sweet from the melon, sour from the lime, and a kick from the ginger. This refreshing drink is everything a hot day calls for. As a bonus, the melon is also a wonderful source of vitamin C!
Add the melon, lime juice, and ginger to a blenderand blend until smooth.
To create an optional decorative rim, run a lime wedge around the rims of your serving glasses. Pour some sugar on a small plate and dip the edge of the glass in the sugar.
Divide the ice between the glasses. Top with cucumber slices. Pour over two parts blended melon mixture to one part carbonated water. Add agave syrup to taste, and enjoy!
Storage
Best if enjoyed immediately.

I actually blended 2/3 of a cucumber with the melon, just because I had a cucumber I had to use up and that way I'm eating veggies in my juice :) The melon I had was so sweet and the cucumber made the drink so fresh, I absolutely love it !! Thanks for this great combo🙌 Your recipes are really great since i'm trying to put more veggies into juice instead of just fruit, and these are great, thank you !!
We totally love this drink. Very refreshing, and a nice change of just water. Since we try to minimise alcoholic drinks in the house, we also find this a great alternative! It easily passes as a mocktail. Also love the app! And the grocery list option…. I think I’m getting old whaha but I love it!!

Aww thanks so much, Kirsten! It means so much that the recipe and App are being enjoyed. Hehe we love it too. After all, aged wine is worth more?! 😉
So refreshing for a hot day here in Portland OR! It does taste like fresh melon and lime soda with a touch of cucumber. The ginger is a nice touch. I feel like I’m drinking an elixir to rejuvenate my tired soul.

Oh, Francine, thank YOU for being here and sharing the kind words ☺️
This drink is my favorite for the summer. It's also fun to make when you have some people over! The lime and sugar rim on the glass not only gives it an extra punch of the lime flavor at the top, but also makes the drink super cute in pictures.
This website is so posh! I love how user-friendly it is. It's virtually refreshing and the contents are well-thought of. Superb job Pick up Limes Team. Been following the Youtube Channel for quite a while now. Funny background story, I was sick and in-search of something that will make me more healthy at that time when I discovered Pick Up Limes, ended up binge watching all the videos from recipes to minimalism and viola! been hooked ever since. Thank you guys! More power :)

If I’m not a fan of agave or maple syrup in drinks, would this recipe still work well with simple syrup?
What a life saver,,
